A Bulletin thumbs up to the courtyard at the downtown Art & Gift Gallery.

The tasteful courtyard has been recently renovated, through the efforts of both Sue Condon and the Garden Glove center.

Visitors who come and go to the gallery from the rear parking lot walk through the charming courtyard.

Here is a big thumbs up to all who teamed up to build it.

Inside, the gallery is hosting Robert Brummett as its guest artist of July. Brummett’s show, “Tar Mám Clasach” (“Over the Mountain”), includes photos he took over 30 years during 50 trips back to the Irish-speaking region of West Kerry.

The area of Ireland is intensely rural and far from the modern cities of Dublin, Galway, Limerick and Cork.
